Getting Started Your Responder HD remote is powered by an internal rechargeable battery that can only be serviced by an authorized Directed dealer. Due to transit and storage time prior to your purchase, the battery charge may have depleted. To ensure proper operation, check the battery level and connect the battery charger if not fully charged. See Battery Information and Status Screen Icons sections for more information about the battery.
Charging the remote control: 1.

3.
Plug the AC adapter into a 110V AC outlet. Insert the mini-USB connector into the port on the remote control. The Status screen Info Center then indicates the remote control is charging. While the Status screen is off, the blue transmit LED will continue blinking until fully charged (the remote control also remains functional to command the system or access the Status screen to check the battery level). Once fully charged the remote control is ready for use. Disconnect the mini-USB end from the remote control first and then the AC adapter from the AC outlet. Mini-USB Port

Alarm Features Normal Arm Protection Status LED: The Control Center Status LED flashes as a visual indicator that your vehicle’s security system is active. Starter Kill: The Failsafe starter kill relay prevents the engine from starting Note
May require additional parts and installation
Sensor triggers: The onboard shock sensor can distinguish minor impacts from major impacts to the vehicle exterior. Minor impacts causes the system to emit a Warn-away output by chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights for 3 seconds. Major impacts caused for example by a forcible entry attempt, results in a Full Trigger output. The siren sounds and the lights flash for 30 seconds or longer. Both Warnaway and Full Triggers send a message to the remote control.
Sensor Silent Arm protection Sensor warn-away and Sensor full trigger activations only send messages to the remote, while the vehicle’s light flash and siren outputs are defeated. Point of entry triggers will activate the light flash, siren, and send messages normally. © 2009 Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.
35
Feature Details
Point of entry triggers: Opening the Hood or Trunk causes a Full Trigger output, while opening a Door or turning on the Ignition causes the the siren to chirp 3 seconds before beginning the Full Trigger output. This 3 second delay allows time to disarm and silence the siren in case of accidental trigger. The Full Trigger message is still sent to the remote.
Full Silent Arm Protection Sensor warn-away, Sensor full trigger and Point of entry activations will only send messages to the remote, with vehicle light flash and siren outputs defeated.
Sensor Warn-away Messages When the remote receives a Sensor Warn-away message it emits 10 beeps (if on) and plays a sensor zone specific WARN AWAY animation once. Warn-away messages cannot be reviewed or displayed in reports.
Full trigger Messages A Full Trigger message generates a Full Trigger output of siren tones and zone specific TRIGGER animation for 15 seconds followed by an alert that consists of 2 beeps per minute for 10 minutes. To stop the output and alert, press a command button to perform a command, or toggle the menu wheel. If the output is not stopped, the next press or toggle of the remote control buttons or wheel replays the zone specific TRIGGER animation for review before returning to normal operation.
Emergency Override The following procedure disarms the system when a programmed remote is not available. Number of presses__________ 1. Turn the ignition On. 2. Press the control button on the Control Center the correct number of times (the default is 1 press). 3. After a few seconds the siren output ceases and the system is disarmed.

Note
As a precaution, if programmed for Passive Arming or Auto re-arming the system should be placed into Valet Mode until a remote is available .
Trigger Zone Fault Report When armed by remote command the system runs a status check of the alarm trigger zones. Faulty zones (usually caused by dome light delay or open trunk) are bypassed and reported via the control center LED and remote, while all other trigger zones remain active and are monitored to protect the vehicle. Should a faulty zone self correct (dome light turns off) it becomes active and is then monitored normally. The siren chirps once again a few seconds following the arming chirps as an audible alert, the control center LED flashes in groups to indicate the zone number. The remote emits a fault tone, displays a screen for each faulty zone, and then updates the Sensor status icon in the Status screen. Press any button within 20 seconds of the fault tone to review the report without performing a command.
The most recent alarm triggers (if any) are reported when the alarm is disarmed via the remote control, siren chirps, parking light and control center LED flashes. The siren chirps 4 times (or 5 times if NPC On*), the lights flash 3 times, and the control center LED flashes in groups to indicate the last two zones that were triggered (see Table of Zones). The remote control Disarm output is replaced by screens and beeps that identify the two most recent triggers.

Last Trigger Report The Last Trigger report displays the two most recent alarm triggers depending on the system state when requested. When disarmed, the report will display screens for the two most recent Alarm Zone triggers since the vehicle was last driven. When armed, the report will display screens for two most recent Alarm Zone triggers since the system was armed. Note
The last trigger report clears when ignition is turned on.
Nuisance Prevention (NPC) NPC monitors all alarm zones and, if any are triggered excessively, bypasses them until corrected. If a point of entry (trunk, hood, door) is left open following a forced entry, it is bypassed. It becomes active again only after being closed. Sensors that trigger excessively are bypassed and reported to the remote via Sensor Status icon in the Status Screen, and by NPC On screens that are displayed during the Disarm Trigger and Last Trigger reports. Bypassed sensors automatically reset after one hour and after the vehicle is driven. Disarming then re-arming the alarm does not reset bypassed sensors. 38

Remote and System Operations Passive Arming* Park and exit the vehicle, after the doors are closed the Passive arming countdown begins. The led flashes quickly and upon reaching 20 seconds the siren then chirps once. At 30 seconds the system arms itself. Anytime before the system arms you can re-enter the vehicle or open the trunk to load or unload items and, after closing passive arming resumes. To stay secure in case of accidental disarming the system, if a door is not opened within 30 seconds the system re-arms itself and locks the doors.
Auto Re-arming*
Onetime Bypass* Turn the ignition On for one to three seconds and then Off. The siren chirps once to confirm one-time bypass is enabled. One-time bypass can be used to temporarily bypass the Passive arming operation for one cycle. It also bypasses the comfort closure and auxiliary channel outputs programmed to activate when arming. After the next disarm all operations return to normal. * These features must be turned on by an authorized Directed dealer. © 2009 Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.
45
Feature Details
Auto re-arm ensures the vehicle stays protected if it is not entered after disarming by remote control. After disarming by remote, the alarm automatically re-arms itself (and locks the doors if programmed on) in 30 seconds. Open any point of entry to stop the re-arm until the next disarm by remote.
Valet Mode Valet mode can be entered and exited by performing the Remote Valet command or manually using the vehicle key and the control button. When entered, the alarm functions are defeated while the convenience features still operate normally. Arm and Disarm commands lock and unlock the doors while the LOCKED IN VALET and UNLOCK IN VALET animations and beeps play to confirm. Use 1. 2. 3.
the following steps to manually enter and exit Valet Mode: Turn the ignition switch On and then Off Immediately press and release the control button once The control center LED turns On when entering and Off when exiting.
Power Save To reduce power consumption the control center status LED modifies its output if the vehicle is parked for an extended period. If Armed the flashing is reduced after 24 hours. When Valet mode is On, the LED turns off after 1 hour and resets each time the ignition is turned off.
Rapid Resume If power is ever disconnected by a mechanic or thief, the system will resume the state it was in at the time of disconnection, when power is reconnected.
Automatic Remote Updates The system sends a silent message to all remote controls after any major action has occurred. When the remote receives this message it updates the status screen icons. This way all users are able to quickly review the system status just by accessing the status screen. 46

Battery Information (Responder HD) The Responder HD remote control is powered by an internal rechargeable battery that can be serviced only through an authorized Directed Electronics dealer. The information and precautions in this section can help maximize your battery’s life and usage in providing your Responder HD remote control with many years of trouble free operation. The battery information for the 1way companion remote control can be found in the 1-way Companion Remote Control section of this manual. Warnings! NEVER connect the supplied AC adapter to products other than the Responder HD remote control. It is a high current device designed specifically for rapid charging of the Responder HD battery and may cause severe damage or explosion when connected to any other products. Battery
Charging the battery when the temperature is below 32°F (0°C) or above 113°F (45°C) may cause severe battery damage and/or reduce battery life. Avoid placing the remote control in areas exposed to extreme cold or heat (direct sunlight) when charging the battery.

ing alerts. Once the alerts begin they will continue to command the system for several days but should be charged at the earliest opportunity or failure to control the system may occur. Low Battery Alerts When disarming the system using a remote control with a low battery the siren will emit one additional chirp as an alert. If confirmation chirps are programmed off, the system will still emit one chirp as an alert when disarming. The Responder HD remote control also interrupts each Status screen output and plays the LOW BATTERY ON REMOTE screen with several alert beeps. Important
To preserve power at critically low battery levels the HD remote disables the color display, stops receiving messages from the system, and only performs basic commands. The beeps and blue transmit LED continues to operate while performing basic commands until the battery is charged.
Battery Life The Responder HD remote control has many features that make it one of the most unique remote controls on the market today, including superior long range communication with the system. The default feature settings provide for excellent battery charge duration. However, to maximize this duration between charges, the following suggestions will help: s s

When the Settings screen appears, toggle the menu wheel up or down to the Adjustments screen and then press in on the menu wheel to enter. 3. In the Adjustments menu, highlight Sensor Adjust and press the Menu Wheel. The remote requests the current setting from the system and displays it in the Sensor Adjustment screen. 4. Follow the on screen instructions to change the setting in the display. 5. Toggle the menu wheel up/down or press the / buttons to change level. 6. When you have reached the desired level, press and hold the menu wheel, the remote sends the level setting in the display to the system; a long beep confirms the new level is set. To reset the level to factory default, press the button. Note: You can test the new setting by cautiously impacting the vehicle with increasing intensity until the siren chirps, indicating the impact level required to fully trigger the alarm. 7. Press the button to exit and return to the Adjustments menu. The setting retains the last saved. AUX
To exit the shock sensor adjustment mode from the control module: Open an entry point or turn on the ignition, the control module emits one long chirp exiting adjustment mode. During level setting and level testing if more than 30 seconds lapses without any action the system will exit sensor adjust and return to the Adjustment menu. Adjusting the sensor with the 1way remote: 1. Disarm the system, turn the ignition Off and close all the doors. 2. Press and hold the button of the remote control for 8 seconds (If Car 2 mode is on, ignore the Car Select beep after 3 seconds) or until the amber LED turns on. 3. Press and hold the button 1.5 seconds or until the amber led flashes then comes on solid.- The control module emits one long chirp, confirming that it has entered adjustment mode. 4. Press the , or buttons to adjust the sensor level. Note: You can test the new setting by cautiously impacting the vehicle with increasing intensity until the siren chirps, indicating the impact level required to fully trigger the alarm. button: Pressing this button increases the sensitivity one level.

To exit the shock sensor adjustment mode from the 1 way remote control: button any time during programming to go back to the main menu. Press and hold Press and release the for 1.5 seconds in the main menu to exit programming.
Initializing Virtual Tach (not needed w/hardwire tach inputs) To program Virtual Tach: 1. After the install is complete, remote start the engine. The programming operation may require 3 cranks of the starter before the engine starts and runs. Do not turn off the remote start if this happens, it is a normal programming operation. 2. Once the engine begins running, let it run for at least 30 seconds. 3. Using the Remote, send the Remote start command to turn remote start off. Virtual Tach is programmed. To reset Virtual Tach, go into the Reset and Deletion section of this guide. Virtual Tach cannot be reset with the Bitwriter. Note: Virtual Tach cannot be used in MTS Manual Transmission Mode. It is also not recommended for diesel trucks. Virtual Tach handles disengaging the starter motor during remote starting – it does not address over-rev. If the customer wants to have the over-rev protection capability, the tach wire must be connected. Important: After successfully learning Virtual Tach, a small minority of vehicle starters may over crank or under crank during remote start. The Bitwriter can be used fine tune the starter output time in 50mS increments to compensate for such an occurrence.
Learning the Tach (not needed with Virtual Tach) To learn the tach signal: 1. Start the vehicle with the key. Within 5 seconds, press and hold the Control button. 2. After 3 seconds the status LED on your Control Center lights constant when the tach signal is learned. 3. Release the Control button. Note: When the tachometer is programmed, the main unit automatically enters the Tachometer engine checking mode.
Neutral safety switch interface Some vehicles do not have an electrical neutral safety switch. Instead, the vehicle has a mechanical neutral safety switch that physically interrupts the starter wire and is used when the vehicle is in any drive gear. If the remote start is interfaced before this switch, it will provide protection from starting in gear. However, some vehicles combine the column shift mechanism and the mechanical neutral safety switch into one mechanical part. Important: You must complete the remote start system installation before doing the following test. Ensure that the remote start system is functioning normally. This includes connecting to the brake as a shut-down.
Testing the neutral safety switch 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Make sure there is adequate clearance to the front and rear of the vehicle because it may move slightly. Make sure the hood is closed and there are no remote start shut-downs active. Set the emergency brake. Turn the key to the “run” position, this releases the shifter. Place the car in drive (D). Place your foot directly over the brake pedal, but do not depress it. Be ready to step on the brake if the starter engages. © 2009 Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.
7. Activate the remote start system. 8. If the starter engages, immediately depress the brake to shut the remote start system down. If the starter does not engage, no additional safety system is required. If the starter engages and the vehicle is a General Motors product or Dodge Dakota pickup, refer to www.directechs.com for Document 1008 under the Resource tab. For an alternative shut-down method which prevents the starter from engaging. If the vehicle is not a General Motors product or a Dodge Dakota pickup, please call Directed Electronics Technical Support for an alternative shut-down method. Do not return the vehicle to the customer until this feature is properly installed!
Remote Start Shutdown/Startup Diagnostics Shutdown diagnostics: If the remote start activates but fails to stay running, the remote start module has the ability to inform you of what may have caused the remote start failure. Before performing shutdown diagnostics it is important that you let the remote start shut off on its own i.e. let it attempt to start 3 times then shut down, if this is not done the unit will report the shutdown you used to shut off the remote start. Note: Shutdown diagnostics does not report if the vehicles factory immobilizer is causing the problem. To perform shutdown diagnostics: 1. With the ignition Off, press and hold the Control button (on Control Center). 2. Turn the ignition On and then back Off while holding the Control button. 3. Release the Control button. 4. Press and release the Control button. The status LED flashes to report the last shutdown for one minute or until the ignition is turned on, as shown in the following table: Status LED Flashes 1 flash 2 flashes 3 flashes 4 flashes 5 flashes 6 flashes 7 flashes 8 flashes 9 flashes 10 flashes 11 flashes

Basic Remote Functions
See Owner’s guide for functionality details on both the HD and 1-way companion remote control.
Reset and Deletion
If a feature/virtual tach needs to be reset or the remote controls need to be deleted, use the following procedure. 1. Open a door. (The GREEN wire, H1/8, or the VIOLET, H1/6 must be connected.) 2. Turn the ignition to the ON position (The heavy gauge pink wire must be connected). 3. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Control button: 2 times if you want to delete remotes, 3 times to reset features or 4 times to reset virtual tach. These features are described next. Delete remotes: This feature erases all remotes from the memory of the security system. This is useful in cases when a customer’s remote is lost or stolen. Note: This does not reset the programmed features of the security system or reset the Virtual Tach setting. Reset Features: This resets features all of the security system to the factory default settings. Note: This feature does not delete the remotes from the security system or reset the Virtual Tach setting Virtual Tach Reset: Deletes all previously learned values for Virtual Tach, and on the next remote start sequence the unit begins virtual tach initialization. Note: The “Zap” feature on the Bitwriter does not reset the Virtual tach setting. 4. Once you have selected the function step, press the Control button once more and hold it. The LED flashes and the siren chirps to confirm the selected functional step. Do not release the Control button 5. While holding the control button, press the button on the remote control. The unit chirps to confirm that the feature has been successfully reset. Once the feature is reset, the Control button can be released.
Long Term Event History
The system stores the last two full triggers in memory. These are not erasable. Each time the unit sees a full trigger, the older of the two triggers in memory is replaced by the new trigger. To access long term event history: 1. With the ignition Off, press and hold the Control button (on Control Center). 2. Turn the ignition On. 3. Release the Control button. 4. Within 5 seconds, press and release the Control button. The status LED flashes in groups indicating the last two zones that triggered the unit for 1 minute or until the ignition is turned off. Refer to table of zones. Note: The Warn Away triggers are not stored to memory and is not reported.

Troubleshooting: Alarm Shock sensor doesn’t trigger the alarm: 1. Was the onboard shock sensor adjusted before the brain was mounted? If so re-adjust the sensor. 2. Has the onboard shock sensor been turned off? The sensor has the ability to be turned off when adjusting. 3. Has the NPC® system been triggered? If so, you hear 5 chirps when disarming. To check this, turn the ignition key on and off to clear the NPC® memory, and then retest the shock sensor. For a detailed description of NPC®, see Nuisance Prevention Circuitry section of the owners guide. Door input does not immediately trigger full alarm. Instead, chirps are heard for the first 3 seconds: s That’s how the progressive two-stage door input works! This is a feature of this system even if the door is instantly closed again, the progression from chirps to constant siren continues. Closing the door triggers the system, but opening the door does not: s Have you correctly identified the type of door switch system? This happens often when the wrong door input has been used. System does not passively arm until it is remotely armed and then disarmed: 1. Is passive arming programmed ON? 2. Are the door inputs connected? Is the H1/7 blue wire connected to the door trigger wire in the vehicle? Either the H1/8 green or the H1/6 violet should be used instead. Door input does not respond with the progressive trigger, but with immediate full alarm: s Does the Status LED indicate that the trigger was caused by the shock sensor? (See Table of Zones section of this guide.) The shock sensor, if set to extreme sensitivity, may be detecting the door unlatching before the door switch sends its signal. Reducing the sensitivity can solve this problem. Door locks operate backwards. s This unit has easily-reversed lock/unlock outputs. Recheck wire connections to see if you have reversed these.

Troubleshooting: Remote Start The remote start will not activate the remote start 1. Check remote startup diagnostics. 2. Is the neutral safety switch plugged in and turned on? 3. If the vehicle has an automatic transmission, make sure the remote start is programmed for Automatic Transmission mode. 4. Is the remote programmed to the system? 5. Can the remote start be activated manually by applying a ground pulse to the H1/10 White/Blue wire? 6. Check the harnesses and their connections. Make sure that the harnesses are completely plugged into the remote start module. Make sure there are good connections to the vehicle wiring. 7. Check voltage and fuses on the main 12-pin harness and on the heavy gauge remote start harness. The remote start will activate, but the starter never engages. 1. Check for voltage on the purple starter wire two seconds after the remote start becomes active. If there is voltage present, skip to Step 8. If there is not voltage present, advance to Step 2. 2. Check the 30A fuses. 3. If the gray/black wait-to-start wire is detecting ground upon activation, the starter will not crank. 4. Is the tach wire connected? If so disconnect it and remote start the vehicle to see if the purple wire sends out voltage. If you get voltage you will need to go to an alternate tach source, the tach wire you are currently on has a voltage spike upon ignition power up which can cause the remote start to not send out the crank voltage. 5. Is the vehicle a Chrysler or GM with a multiplexed starter wire? The vehicle will not crank if the resistance is incorrect on the multiplexed accessory/starter wire. 6. Is the vehicle a GM? If so the Brown 2nd accessory needs to be powered up on some of the vehicles for the vehicle to crank. 7. If this is a manual transmission vehicle, the clutch will need to be bypassed (see tech tip # 10000 at www.directechs.com) 8. Make sure the purple starter wire is connected on the starter side of the optional starter kill/anti-grind relay. 9. Does the vehicle have an immobilizer? Some immobilizer systems will not allow the vehicle to crank if active. 10. Check connections. The heavy gauge remote start input wires on the heavy gauge 10-pin connector should have a solid connection. “T-taps” or “scotch locks” are not recommended. The vehicle starts, but immediately dies. 1. Does the vehicle have an immobilizer? The vehicle’s immobilizer can cut the fuel and/or spark during unauthorized starting attempts. 2. Is the remote start programmed for virtual tach or voltage sense? If so, the crank time may not be set high enough. Voltage sense will not work on some vehicles. 3. Is the remote start in tach mode? If so has the tach been programmed to the system? 4. Check diagnostics. Sometimes a shutdown will become active during cranking or just after cranking. The vehicle starts, but the starter keeps running. 1. Is the system programmed for engine checking off or virtual tach or voltage sense? When programmed for either of these features, the engine cranks for the pre programmed crank time regardless of how long it takes for the vehicle to actually start. Adjust to a lower cranking time. 2. Was the Tach Learn successful? The LED must light solid and bright to indicate a successful learn. 3. Make sure that there is a tach signal at the purple/white tach input wire of the remote start. If there is not a tach signal, recheck the connection to the vehicle’s tach wire and make sure the wire is not broken or shorted to ground leading to the remote start. 4. Is an ignition or accessory output wire connected to the starter wire of the vehicle? Verify the color of the starter wire in the vehicle and confirm that an ignition or an accessory output is not connected to that wire. The vehicle starts, but will only run for 10 seconds 22

1. Is the remote start programmed for voltage sense? If this does not work, a tach wire should be used. 2. Check shutdown diagnostics. The climate control system does not work while the unit is operating the vehicle. 1. Either the wrong accessory wire is being energized or more than one ignition or accessory wire must be energized in order to operate the climate control system. 2. If the vehicle has an electronic climate control system some will reset when the key is turned off and then back on, unfortunately this is a function of the vehicle and cannot be bypassed. MTS - Manual Transmission Start diagnostics When enabling MTS, if you get a failure notification from the remote or the vehicle fails to remain started check for following: s Tachometer not connected or programmed. s E-brake not connected to the remote start unit. The black/white H2/18 neutral safety wire must have a ground when the parking brake is set. s Foot must be off the brake when activating the MTS mode on the remote. s Is the door open when enabling the MTS mode? If so this would cause the unit to enter Pit Stop Mode and the remote start will continue to run when arming/locking the system. s Is the door input connected? The system needs to see a door open then close after initiating the remote start. s Does the vehicle have a delayed dome light? If you are connected to the dome light wire and the dome light is staying on after arming/locking the system, the system can exit the MTS mode. s Make sure the neutral safety switch is plugged in and turned on. MTS mode exiting diagnostics: If the remote start has entered the MTS mode but exits the mode after the system is armed/locked. Check these for possible causes. s The vehicle door has been opened or the security system has been triggered in your absence. s Does the vehicle have a delayed dome light circuit or does the dome light come on when the ignition is shut off? If so you may need to go to the independent door inputs of the vehicle. s If you are connected to the dome light wire in the vehicle and cannot connect the system to the individual door inputs of the vehicle due to it having normally closed door inputs, you can use the Xpresskit DTIMAZDA module or Tech Tip # 1921 at www.directechs.com to interface with these types of circuits. s The E-brake wire connected to the neutral safety input of the system loses ground when ignition is turned off or after a certain amount of time, with these vehicles unfortunately there is no workaround. s The E-brake wire connected to the neutral safety input of the system has a poor ground. Clean the contacts on the switch or replace the switch.
